Nonviolent Power and People of Color

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Meek Ain't Weak is a fresh examination of the indigenous roots of mass liberatory nonviolence. From African regions to South American culture, from Asian worldviews to the wisdom of the ancients of the subcontinent, the origins of nonviolent conduct in conflict are both important and ignored.
